Looking Back: A Year of Art & Water Magic!

Summer in Canada is all about sunshine, outdoor adventures, and vibrant cultural experiences. Whether you're looking for family-friendly activities in Toronto, live music by the water, or exciting outdoor festivals in and around Canada, there's something for everyone. Here’s a look at some of the best summer activities we hosted last year you won’t want to miss this year!

As we gear up for another exciting season, we want to take a moment to reflect on an incredible year of music, dance, and community by the water. Thanks to you, 2023 was filled with unforgettable moments, and we’re thrilled to keep the energy going in 2024!

✨ R&B Under the Stars
In partnership with Waveland, we celebrated Canadian music under the night sky, fostering social connections and showcasing incredible homegrown talent.

💃 Waterfront Wednesdays
All summer long, we danced together at our free workshops led by talented artists, bringing movement and joy to Toronto’s waterfront.

🎤 Battle by the Water
From Toronto to Ottawa, our dockside dance battles and performances turned the waterfront into a stage, bringing artists and audiences together for unforgettable experiences.

💙 Giving Back
We were also honored to spread joy beyond our events by donating PirateLife adventure cruise passes to:
⭐ Kids Up Front Toronto – Granting a wish for a pirate adventure cruise for kids with chronic illnesses and their families.
⭐ The Starlight Foundation – Helping families create unforgettable memories and experience the magic of accessible theater.

These partnerships remind us of the power of art to uplift, inspire, and bring people together.

We can’t wait for what’s ahead in 2024!

We can’t wait to bring you even more magic this year!

Stay tuned by following us on @ArtWater and keep your eyes glued on our website for upcoming event announcements.

Thank you for being part of this vibrant community—see you by the water soon!
